Consumer Description
PURCHASED VEHICLE 5/8/2014. DRIVING HOME AND I CALLED MY HUSBAND AND STATED THAT THE CAR SOUNDED LIKE CRAP--WASN'T SHIFTING CORRECTLY AND JUST HAD A HORRIBLE SOUND COMING FROM ENGINE. HE STATED WE WILL CHECK OIL AND TRANSMISSION FLUID WHEN YOU GET HOME. TO FIND NO OIL OR TRANSMISSION ON EITHER. WE IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED DEALER WE PURCHASED FROM AND WE HAD IT TOWED THERE FOR ATTENTION. CAR DEALER CHANGED OIL(WHICH WASN'T MUCH) AND TRANSMISSION FLUID WERE "FINE". PASSING THE BUCK! WE CONTINUED TO KEEP AN EYE ON IT TO FIND WE ARE PUTTING QUARTS OF OIL IN IT. IT HAS HAD 3 OIL CHANGES IN LESS THAN 6 MONTHS AND NOT DUE TO MILEAGE---DUE TO EACH PLACE WE TOOK IT TO-DEALER-CHANGED OIL, JIFFY LUBE-CHANGED OIL-HONDA-CHANGED OIL AND STARTED "OIL CONSUMPTION" TEST. I HAVE CHECKED OIL IN MY CARS, SINCE I WAS 16 YEARS OLD. HONDA STATING "IT'S NORMAL"--IT'S NOT NORMAL TO HAVE TO KEEP ADDING OIL TO YOUR CAR BETWEEN ONE OIL CHANGE TO ANOTHER, DUE TO MILEAGE ONLY. YOU CAN VISUALLY SEE OIL EVERYWHERE ON THE ENGINE BLOCK AND LAYING ON OTHER COMPONENTS OF THE ENGINE. FIX THE CAR!!!!!! *TR
